From year to year, the messaging has been pretty consistent with a strong focus on integrated service management, smarter physical infrastructures, security, and cloud computing. What surprised me the most this year was the huge focus on <b>Mobility</b>. IBM executives hit this topic hard at the starting gate. On <a href="http://www.livestream.com/ibmsoftware/video?clipId=pla_72933220-4c5f-4452-8196-3677ffc5d7f5">day 1 of the Pulse Opening General Session</a>, Senior Vice President of IBM Middleware, Robert LeBlanc, explained that IBM is focusing on four priorities: Cloud, mobility, security, assets and facilities. When companies were asked what is driving unprecedented shifts in technology? Respondents replied:&nbsp; 83% Analytics, 74% Mobility, 68% Virtualization, 61% Cloud, and 58% Security. Tivoli General Manager, Danny Sabbah argued that "Cloud + Mobility = New technology trend" as he pointed out that 33% of cloud expansion is driven by Mobility and that mobile devices will account for half of all devices using business applications. <br><br><p>&nbsp;</p>At the conference, I was helping with our <a href="http://www.livestream.com/ibmsoftware/folder?dirId=59d11a66-fc3e-4d8d-abf9-3fe7a1c955eb">Pulse 2012 Livestream recordings</a>, and had a chance to hear many of the guest speakers elaborate on the importance of Mobility and how it's causing a revolution of sorts. My favorite speaker on the topic was Vice President of IBM Mobile Platform, Bob Sutor, because he did a great job explaining the realities of how major changes in our world have dramatically impacted the IT industry. He points out that it's not only Cloud + Mobility that is the new technology trend, but also Cloud + Mobility + Social + Commerce + Security + Analytics and more that are requiring businesses and technology companies to rethink their business. See <a href="http://bit.ly/J4dEu2">his interview</a> below. He also writes about Mobility often on<b> <a href="http://sutor.com/c">his blog</a></b>.<br><br><br><br><br>

<br><br><br><br><br><p>&nbsp;</p>Some other Pulse interviews focused on how IBM is enabling businesses to build mobile applications, run and connect them
to backend systems, manage their devices and applications, secure
their businesses, and extend and grow them on mobile include:<br><ul><li><a href="http://www.livestream.com/ibmsoftware/video?clipId=pla_03f1f8e2-cf6f-42df-b16b-f9b06354c2a0">Wing To, IBM Vice President of Tivoli Strategy and Product Management</a></li><li><a href="http://www.livestream.com/ibmsoftware/video?clipId=pla_03f1f8e2-cf6f-42df-b16b-f9b06354c2a0">Marie Wieck, General Manager of Websphere</a></li></ul><br><p>&nbsp;</p>You can expect to hear a lot about <b><a href="http://ibm.co/IRtjxF">IBM and Mobility</a></b> at IBM's next major conference, <b><a href="http://ibm.com/impact">IBM Impact</a></b>, in Las Vegas next month. <b><a href="http://ibm.co/Jb5FNc">Tivoli folks</a></b> will be there continuing this conversation as well.

Over the weekend, the ibm.com Community team deployed Single Sign-on (SSO). SSO means that users can log in to <a href="http://ibm.com/communities">ibm.com Community on Lotus Connections</a>, and then visit other <a href="http://w3.tap.ibm.com/w3ki05/display/WebIdentitySupport/SSO+Adopters">SSO-enabled www applications </a>without having to sign in again - and vice versa.&nbsp; And, if you have linked your <a href="https://w3-03.sso.ibm.com/tools/cso/index.jsp">w3 ID with your IBM ID</a>, ibm.com Community (and other SSO-enabled applications) will recognize you with your w3 ID.&nbsp; This capability enables better integration between ibm.com Community and the rest of the ibm.com Web site, and makes it easier for employees to traverse w3 and our ibm.com collaboration environments. See <a href="http://w3.the.ibm.com/service/sbg/social_programs/community_profile.html">ibm.com Community profile</a> to learn more about the importance of building profiles and linking IDs.<br><br><p>&nbsp;<br></p>Quick note: URLs are now redirecting to www-304, the Log out link is gone, and our Lotus Connections sign in page has been replaced with a generic Web Identity sign in page. <br><br><br><p>&nbsp;<br></p>If you notice anything that doesn't appear to be working correctly, please click '<a href="https://www-304.ibm.com/communities/service/html/feedback?feedbackType=Submit%20Feedback&amp;returnTo=https://www.ibm.com/communities/service/html/allcommunities">Submit Feedback</a>' at the bottom of any ibm.com Community page, or send a detailed e-mail (URL, browser information) to <a href="comsupp@us.ibm.com">comsupp@us.ibm.com</a>. </div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Some other IBMer tools you will want to know about if you participate in social media with the public: <br></div><div><ul><li><a href="http://w3.the.ibm.com/service/sbg/overview.html">Social Business at IBM</a></li><li><a href="https://w3.the.ibm.com/expertisedashboard/login.html">Expertise locator</a></li></ul><br> </div>
